Bab 285: The Ominous Presence

" Sigh... Anyway, it was dark and the jungle was treacherous. Aurelie got her foot stuck in a root and a spinosaurus devoured her in one bite. Arthur lost his temper and tried to avenge her.

We reached your base last night, but those same monsters had followed us. Thanks to all the traps, Kevin and Sarah managed to repel them. Unfortunately, most of Kevin's minions died to protect us.
